Room safes on the Inspiration...

[NOVEMBERCRUISER]

Is the safe large enough to put a small laptop in? (A Macbook) My husband has to bring his for work and we were wondering if it would fit in the safe. It wouldn't have to be the entire laptop bag, just the computer itself. Thanks!

 

We cruise the Inspiration on November 17th!!!:D

First time cruisers!!

No the safes are very small. Your laptap will not fit. I would just put it in a closet or in your suitcase under your bed. My friend brought hers one time and left it out in the open the whole cruise and never had a problem.

Congratulations on your first cruise!! You picked a wonderful ship for your first voyage!!!

The safes on all Carnival ships are 8X9X10 so unless you have a tiny tablet PC it's not gonna fit.

I take mine with me and leave it out on the desk all the time and have never had any problems...

The safes lock with a magnetic strip, so take along a grocery card or something with the strip on it.

Don't understand??? What do you mean take a grocery card?

[CruiznWithHubby]

WOW,,,good info to have,,,We are taking a computer along so that we can have some contact with the kids while we're gone,,,they're all pretty grown,,,but DS is 21, with a BRAND NEW driver's license, and he's keeping an eye on DD who is 17, with the help of older DD who is 23,,,

 

Just nice to know that if (God forbid) DS cracks the car up (why do I worry about these things? He's a good driver,,,) we can email them directions on what to do with the car, etc,,,,,God only knows what I think I'm going to do thousands of miles away,,,,,shaking head,,,

 

anyhoo,,,,does anyone know anythng about buying minutes for emails, etc? I don't expect to need alot,,,just enough to check my email 2ce a day for major disasters at home,,,

Any card that has a magnetic strip! Old credit card, etc. You must use the same strip to lock and open it again. Maybe you don't have CVS and Publix Upromise cards where you live.

I don't bother to take my computer but just buy a block of minutes for the computer room. I think for $30 or $35 you can send emails every day if you don't get to long winded. LOL...the connection speed is rather slow.

I've never found a safe big enough for even my tiny old 12" Powerbook on a cruise. So I keep it in my luggage, and put a luggage lock on that. (Something I'm in the habit of doing anyway...)

[kyrisong1]

We always have my husbands laptop, cameras and a bunch of electronic stuff cause my hubby is a puter geek :rolleyes: , we try to keep it all in a small pile somewhere where it wont' bug the steward, but we've never had anything missing from our stuff, I certainly wouldn't worry about it, we do lock up our cell phones, besides that other electronics are out and in the open.

Happy Sailing, you'll be hooked!!!
